JaguarRam Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 As I have made it quite clear in previous posts I am not Nigel Pearson's biggest fan or a fan at all. I thought the results were poor and the football terrible. I do, however, think that if the Blackburn game was his last as manager that we should thank him for his contribution to the club in the short time he was here. Maybe with time (before whatever happened over the weekend) he could have been successful or maybe he wouldn't and he didn't fit in with the way we play. Either way he, without doubt, put tremendous effort and managed the team in the way he thought best and has been successful previously. Which ever side of the fence you are on we should wish him all the best in his future career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanking Nigel Pearson for what he's done at Derby, from your viewpoint, is like thanking Pol Pot for his efforts to advance socialism, whilst holding your nose at his methods.

Comrade 86 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 He was the architect of his own downfall. He's gone now so I think it's fair to offer opinions, fair or foul. At time of appointment, he seemed a viable option. The list of potential candidates was not an inspiring one and of that mottley crew I think he stood out. The likes of Brendan Rodgers were mooted but that kind of expectation was never realistic IMO. What I didn't take into account was the man's character and it was this that has ultimately led to his downfall as much as results on the pitch. He proved to be devisive on and off the pitch, even amongst the fanbase and you need to be a Brian Clough type of figure to survive that and he was not. Do I think he should have been given time? Absolutely, but then that is true of Wassall, Clement and McClaren. I'd even have given Clough a little longer given what he'd achieved off the pitch but that's just me. As to the future. I think any manager coming in needs to be given a sensible amount of time especailly if it is likely that he'll overhaul rather than tinker. It seems Chris Powell is in prime position and given his genuine passion for the club, I'd like to see him given a run rather than have yet another interim position which will only destabilise things further. He should be told the job is his to lose and given a chance to get inside the players' heads and to try to get them playing as a cohesive unit rather than a collective of unhappy individuals. Equally critical (and again this is just my opinion) is that the fans support the team, even if there's no immediate improvement beyond the Cardiff game. Whoever takes over, we should also respect that fact that they have the stones to take the job on. Recent events will serve as a warning for some and the job will not be as appealing to everyone as some posters assume. Of all the candidates being bandied about, I think the man most likely to bring stability is Powell. I'd not want to see any manager jumping ship to join us because I want a manager to commit to and fulfil a contract, not get his head turned should he prove successful at Derby. If Chris is our guy than I'd hope we won't be seeing endless posts rubbishing his abilities before he's had a chance to show what he can do. That'd say more about us than him. COYR.

Glad you are still with us, confused though you may be ATM. This happens to me also, i get all softhearted and forgiving all of a sudden but i usually recover relatively quickly and i am sure you will as well.

I really don't care how it sounds. Yes I am and was very negative about NP and I make no apologies about it. I think the football was awful, tactics poor and results terrible unfortunately. I think now he has left we can move forward and be more positive. However, I will thank him for his efforts while he was here and wish him all the best in the future.

Comrade 86 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 No need to be defensive bud. I mean that. I'm not digging you out and I think you're being soppy more than disingenous, but the moment I saw the post I figured you were going to get some flak for it. We've butted heads over Pearson but this ain't that fella! Anyways, as you say, it's done now and it definitely is time for more positivity than we've seen of late.
